Open Mic Week 62 Cover of Tiamat's "Phantasma De Luxe"
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="
Greetings Steemians
Here's another Tiamat cover for your listening pleasure. It is one of my favorites off one of my favorite albums "A Deeper Kind Of Slumber". It was a really great album to get high as hell before listening to, something which I still do all these years later.
lyrics
This dole crowner gallows me
As this mere welkin hallowed be
Whereupon I trick and train and tire
To limn my umbered love in fire
Before this noble mare bewrays
As I clearly see it decays
In debile coil of smoke suspires
May our last orison quickens as we
Are drumbling near this poize of free
Quell me maculate slowly dyer
Case my remains with sharpened brier
Atone me to my throes curtail
To dim and dire fields I vail
And my eale's but a slumbering lier
Then so lingered here but none
To buckle back what had begun
In molten aeons caged desire
Dared phantasma us much higher
Ceased to milch the clover flower
Neither raindrops nor my lover
Shall restore what has been done
When we're all keeled in freezing sun
Here's a list of word meanings to aid in understanding the lyrics
dole = one's fate or destiny
limn = to portray, to illuminate
umbered = a shade, a ghost, a shadow
mare = nightmare
welkin = the sky, the vault of heaven
bewray = to reveal or expose, to betray
debile = weak
orison = prayer, incantation, oration
suspires = breathes poise = to weigh or measure
dire = fearful, desperate
eale = ale (a drink)
keeled = to turn over so that the wrong side is uppermost, to upset, colloquialy: to be dead.
